THERE'S A CHANCE
Rooting not just for a Game 7 of the World Series, but another 18 inning game that goes so long on Saturday night that the clocks fall back at 2am before it’s ended and everyone gets tremendously confused about what time it is.

This will be the 7th game I've ever watched so I have no guesses 🤷🏻‍♀️, but I will make some after game predictions:

1. When we win Trump will put tariffs on us because he's a man-baby sore-loser.

2. Ice will be waiting for the Dodgers plane to land and detain all the brown players as "illegals".

Fourth inning, benches clearing, hit batter in Game 7 of the World Series. Who knew that’s how the US-Canada war would begin?
Essas brigas no baseball são muito engraçadas pois altamente ritualizadas. Eu adoro.
It’s not always this good, quite frankly.
Same. And the worst part is that it made me laugh.

It's not just seniors anymore: now Florida is also a great place for children to live out their final years.
FL is moving forward w/ plan to end all childhood vaccine mandates. Starting with hepatitis B, chickenpox, and the bacteria causing meningitis and pneumonia. Then next year GOP FL legislature is expected to revisit 1977 law re: whooping cough, measles, polio, rubella, mumps, diphtheria, and tetanus.

Saw Herbie Hancock last night (with Terence Blanchard!)

Late in the show he did a solo vocoder interlude on the perils of AI and why we need to teach our children (including AI) ethics, or we'll end up living out the Terminator films.

New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people

I agree that LLMs probably aren't causing truly novel mental illness in previously mentally-stable people, but the key issue is that a TON of people DO have either active or latent mental illnesses - and it seems near impossible to accurately determine who's really at risk of LLM psychosis

Thanks to some vigilant friends out there, I have a nearly-complete 87-hour radar loop of #Melissa 's approach to #Jamaica. The loop abruptly ends when the radar is lost (either loss of communication with it or loss of the actual structure).
